What happens in the No Other Choice trailer?

The video shows Lee’s character as a husband and a father who suddenly loses his job. This unexpected problem forces his family to make changes to their lifestyle. Desperate to provide for his family again, he’ll do everything he can to get the new job he applied for, even if it means he has to kill off his competitors. The cast also includes Park Hee-soon (My Name), Lee Sung-min (The Spy Gone North), Yeom Hye-ran (The Glory), Cha Seung-won (Believer 1&2), and Yoo Yeon-seok (Mr. Sunshine).

No Other Choice is directed and produced by Park Chan-wook, who gained international recognition for his work in acclaimed movies such as The Vengeance trilogy, The Handmaiden, and Decision to Leave. The screenplay is written by Lee Kyoung-mi, Don McKellar, and Jahye Lee, based on the 1997 novel The Ax by Donald Westlake. Producers are Back Jisun, Michèle Ray Gavras, and Alexandre Gavras, with Miky Lee serving as an executive producer.

This marks the latest collaboration between the filmmaker and NEON, following the successful re-release of Oldboy in theaters and a limited deluxe edition 4K UHD Blu-ray to celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2023. Park’s most recent project was last year’s HBO miniseries The Sympathizer, which earned Robert Downey Jr. an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor.
